By their actions and words (at least public words), the Mets aren’t weighing clubhouse atmosphere very heavily.
Teams regularly downplay or deny clubhouse issues. But their moves align with their words.
By now, I believe them. For good or bad, their focus is analytics (possible name change: New York Metrics?).
It’s hard to imagine they believe that removing the perpetually upbeat Brandon Nimmo and Edwin Díaz enhances the room. Nor should they think adding Devin Williams does, either. Both Brewers and Yankees people seemed relieved when he left (and multiple Brewers people said they knew New York wasn’t the right place for him, which is what makes Stearns, the ex- Brewers honcho, such an unlikely acquirer of Williams). Williams isn’t a disrupter and he seemed more comfortable late last year. But the switch from Díaz to Williams is an undeniable downer, even beyond the 2025 performance gap.
